This was an excellent book. Well narrated. but above all, the factual arguments, non emotive nature, logical reasoning, extensive reasearch and wisdom and intelligence of Dr Ambedkar in interpretation of the context , personalities , supported by letters and speeches, deriving from facts, was superb.

The book created an understanding I never had of the history of India /Pakistan despite growing up in the region. It brought home the superfluous nature of so calledb"history " that text books feed children in schools giving rise to nothing but dogmatic rigidity. This book is written in a spirit of open enquiry, balanced opinion, facts, precedents, pragmatic solution ( unfortunately not adopted) and introduces a refreshing way of looking at the history of subcontinent.

Thank you Dr. Ambedkar ji, even if you left the planet Earth long time ago.

Very insightful

The book is a thought-provoking and meticulously researched book that delves deep into the complex socio-political dynamics that led to the partition of India in 1947. It presents a multidimensional analysis of the Hindu-Muslim communal tensions, the role of British colonial rule, and the motives of various political entities.

One of the book's strengths is Ambedkar's unbiased approach. He neither glorifies nor vilifies any group; instead, he presents a clear-eyed view of each side's fears, ambitions, and flaws. This balanced approach allows readers to see the complexities of the Hindu-Muslim relationship and understand the psychological and social factors that fueled communal discord.

It's essential reading for anyone interested in history, politics, and the challenges of nation-building.

Good book, quite explanatory.
Make it a school book for secondary classes.
How the lust for position and power of individuals effected people of 2 countries for several decades should be known to children to enable them to be good citizens.

Good.

The voice artist did an amazing work of narrating this book. He literally voice acted key figures' speech out whenever Babasaheb quoted those people in his book. This book is quite heavy with narratives and counter narratives of on going political conflict of the period. And this narration style really helps with following it.
Babasaheb's writing has always been very objective, scientific and analytical. That's beyond question. But the narrator here put it out for us in a really compelling manner.
Thanks for this work. I will listen to more books from this narrator.
